Well alas my event season is back and my life is officially a chaotic storm again. Not having a break this summer was no bueno but I'd rather be busy with a job than sitting here twiddling my thumbs without one.

Sorry today's post is so short and sweet but please link up and catch up with your favorite bloggers new and old below! I'm trying not to die in this heat wave that has decided to linger in LA from the weekend ... 115 with heat index is just not my idea of relaxation!

Thanks to my babe Alex for being today's co-host for Stylish Tuesday ... she's one of LA's best not only because she's been in the blogging world for 5 years, but also because she is the owner/founder of the So Cal Blog Society and someone I call a friend in real life - not just behind the screen. You're a doll for co-hosting!

Welcome back! Thanks to everyone for sticking with me these last couple of weeks as I've gotten my life in order between work and Dr. D moving to Ohio! I actually just spent Labor Day weekend with Dr. D at his new place and I have to admit it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be; however, the 5 hour plane ride sucked royally. But that's for a later post.

But let's back things up a bit because I know y'all aren't as interested in my personal relationship as you are the Emmys!

The week before the Primetime Emmys is the Creative Arts Awards & Governors Ball. Where the Primetime awards honor the actors, the Creative Arts honor all of the behind the scenes people (lighting, sound, etc.) The Governors Ball for this event is always a bigger party because how often does someone from lighting get honored with an Emmy?

I had some extra tickets and took my roommate Meems and best guy friend Matt. This is us on the red carpet with the Emmy statuette in the background

He's just so handsome!

The four of us toasting to a wonderful awards season!

Fast forward a week and we've had press previews galore plus the red carpet rollout with Emmys host Seth Meyers. Our wines were getting a ton of press and I couldn't have been more pumped for the 66th Primetime Emmys!

My girlfriend Kate did my hair for the big day and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out

I wore the same dress as I did to the Oscars - I didn't want this gorgeous gown to be a "one and done" dress. Unfortunately I was home alone before the event took place so I had to take a selfie to capture the full look.
